It’s a Love Story

That’s right, LOVE STORY by Mikasa, a gorgeous coordinated grouping of dish ware and accessories. The Mikasa website describes it this way:

“Celebrate true love and timeless elegance with Love Story. Graceful bands wind their way across each plate and feature delicate hearts on accent pieces. The perfectly coordinated dinnerware, glassware, and giftware are all adorned with this lovely design, creating a pattern to be treasured for anniversaries to come.”

Ranging in price from $14.99 to $49.99, these lovely swirl design pieces would make a beautiful addition to a curio cabinet or to start a china pattern. A delightful blend of the classic with a contemporary twist, Love Story offers many decorative pieces that can stand alone or create a collection.

While some of the items are cute and might make good Valentine’s Day gifts, I don’t like the dinnerware with hearts on it. Really poor design choice. Too trendy, and something you will tire of very quickly. I doubt the pattern would hold up to use very well either.

I think people should look at dinnerware the same they do their clothes. You pick a few very good items that coordinate well together and over time you create a wardrobe. Same with dinnerware. Pick items that you love, of good quality, that will look good together on the table. Who cares if they “match.” It’s all about putting together a look that you’ll never tire of. Shop antique stores for china that you like, put different dishes, glasses, and patterns together and see what happens. Antique china is one of the best bargains available! Don’t buy the trendy, poorly designed, and poorly manufactured crap put out by low end china manufacturers.
